What a great day so far! WOW!

Ok, first of all I got these:





This alone would make for a great day! Seconds later I got an email from our agency stating that I have OFFICIAL clearance from everyone to go to Guatemala on May 21!!! IT IS HAPPENING!!! THANK YOU, GOD!!!!!!!!!! I will be going to be with my baby in 25 days and have her FOREVER! That is such an amazing feeling.....I just can't describe it. Natalie and I were just talking about how real this is all becoming. We are going to get our girls! SOMEBODY PINCH ME!!! Whew! Can you tell that I am excited?????

Ok, now look at my girl. How cute is this kid? I am wondering though.......did somebody steal Wayne Newton's hair and put it on AP? LOL!!! What am I going to do with this hair? I love it! I guess I'll just randomly stick bows in there somewhere. Please continue to pray. It is working!! God is hearing all of our prayers. I am so happy to be able to share this joy with all of you. You guys are my team, and I love and thank you all for everything you do for me!

She is sucking on that bottom lip like crazy! I think Wayne uses some sort of pomade or brill cream on his hair to control it. But we've grown up with the most difficult hair on the planet (our own) - we can deal with AP's bouffant!! Love you. Glad to hear you sounding perky and happy again. Wish I was going to Mala with you...
Love Aunt Ninny-Poo

Congratulations Lou!!! That is fabulous news! Maybe we'll get to meet down in GC! We're still waiting to find out when our PINK appt date is, but it will likely be around the third week of May! We should know our exact date next week sometime! I am so excited for you guys! Now all you need to make it even better is to get OUT of PGN!!! Love, Keely

She is so adorable. Lovin the hair. You better have a lot of bows. Maya has plenty if you need some. I am so happy for you. It makes my heart flip to hear that someone's process is doing something.

I can't wait to get my hands in that hair, and there's NO WAY I will be able to tell those big brown eyes "no", so Aunt Daisy will have her spoiled beyond belief. =) I'm just so glad this is all finally becoming reality. Thank you God!!!!

I shouted and laughed OUT LOUD when I read your Wayne Newton hair comment!!! I was just getting ready to say WHAT IS WITH HER HAIR??? Not in a bad way, just funny! I had crazy, wild hair when I was a baby so mom would smooth it down with baby oil and then it would look like I just had greasy, grody hair. No win. I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!! Things are really working out!!!! Congrats!!! Hopefully you'll already be home by the time I go on our visit trip, but if not, would love to meet up with you & Natalie sometime! Take care!
